Looking for a new career in a growing field? Norwalk Community College is the only community college in Connecticut to offer an associate degree program in Interior Design.

The NCC Interior Design program is designed to develop technical skills, creativity and an understanding of all aspects of interior design. Completion of this program leads to an Associate in Applied Science degree.

Courses offered for the Fall 2008 semester include Architectural Visualization, which meets either on Monday and Wednesday from 6 to 9 p.m. or Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to noon; and Color and Lighting for Design, which meets from 4 to 6 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Fall semester begins Sept. 3, 2008.

Graduates of the Interior Design degree program are qualified by education, experience and examination to enhance the functionality and quality of interior spaces for the purpose of improving the quality of life, increasing productivity and protecting the health, safety and welfare of the public.

The Interior Design program prepares students to:

• Analyze a client’s needs, goals and life safety requirements

• Integrate findings with knowledge of interior design and formulate preliminary design concepts that are aesthetic, appropriate and functional and in accordance with codes and standards

• Develop and present final recommendations through appropriate presentation media

• Prepare working drawings and specifications for non load-bearing interior construction, reflective ceiling plans, lighting, interior detailing, materials, finishes, space planning, furnishings, fixtures and equipment in compliance with universal accessibility guidelines and all applicable codes

• Collaborate with professional services of other licensed practitioners in the technical areas of mechanical, electrical and load-bearing design as required for regulatory approval

• Prepare and administer bids and contract documents as the client’s agent, review and evaluate design solutions during implementation and upon completion
